9ES346: A Big Stand

I guess we’ll never know whether or not Disney suspended Jimmy Kimmel just to make some noise and piss people off or something but boy is it a wild time for free speech.

 

You know you’re getting pretty crazy when Joe Rogan looks at what you’re doing and is like “yeah – this is a little crazy.” Ted Cruz and Joe Rogan being voices of reason is a pretty clear sign you’ve done something pretty messed up.

 

Anyways, free speech reigns forever on the 9to5 Entertainment System!

 

They will never silence our right to… umm.. Talk about the Spiderman movie from 25 years ago? Never I say!

 

Jono watched the James Gunn Superman flick and I think we will only probably talk about it once more after Scott watches it. I still don’t understand how Scott hasn’t watched Peacemaker yet, but that’s another story.

 

We also finish up setting the rules for the “Firewatch Challenge” and I’m going to type them out here:

 

  1. We each have been assigned to an isolated fire tower in Northern Quebec.

  2. We can “rent” one movie a month and it will be the only thing we can watch on our crummy little televisions.

  3. If we try to rent the same movie as one of the other hosts the other hosts will sub in a movie they deem to be close enough.

  4. There are no special features on any of the movies.

  5. We have access to a “little bit” of weed if we want it, but only really in the summer months.

  6. Wrestling Pay-Per-Views are allowed.

 

Meanwhile on a brand new episode of Garbage Time Jon and Keith talk about Silksong some more because it’s really the only video game that matters anymore. Keith watched a documentary about Devo on Netflix and Scott watched a documentary about how 1982 was one of the best years in cinema history. We quickly decide that 1999 was even better.

9ES 264: Joy Division and Otis Redding

The Montreal podcast that can look at the downfall of civilization and say: “Yes, but what about Clown Core?”

Look, we’re not going to sit here and pretend that there isn’t a grievous step backwards in human rights going on with our neighbours to the South. We know it’s happening. You know it’s happening. It’s gross and frankly despicable on every possible level.

However, what we are going to do is acknowledge that:

  1. You probably don’t need 3 straight white guys telling you about women’s reproductive rights
  2. Our show is probably better suited to being a silly distraction than a grim reminder of the horrors of humanity.

That said: Please familiarize yourself with Clown Core. Go ahead. We’ll wait.  If you’re debating clicking that link let it be known that the whole “album” (titled of course simply “Van”) is only about 17 minutes long.

Anyways, Scott and I have both watched the Obi-Wan Kenobi show in Disney+ and have mixed takes and we also debate where exactly the original “Little Shop of Horrors” sits in the grand horror pantheon.

The Sex Pistols are one of those acts that everyone knows about, everyone has an opinion about and are kind of difficult to ignore for their role as one of the most important bands of the last 50 years. That said, Danny Boyle’s “Pistol” is pretty much a must-watch. We dig into the Sex Pistols history and legacy too.

We also find time for Dr. Strange, The Boys and how none of us have seen Top Gun yet because we’re afraid of being duped into joining the Navy. Listen, I’m as opposed to the industrial military complex as the next guy but who can deny that Danger Zone slaps?

Meanwhile in Garbage Time, we continue to talk about Obi-Wan and Star Wars because we’re huge nerds but we also talk about how Vince McMahon is an absolutely monster. Head over  to Patreon and subscribe at the 9ES Deluxe tier to listen to this and all past episodes of Garbage Time!

9ES109: The Internet’s Only Official Greatest Films List Pt. 1

We have a very special treat for you today.  We’re starting a new feature for the site, a definitive list of the greatest films of all time as selected by us, and we’re taking a whole episode of the podcast to start the list off with a bang.  The format is fairly simple.  Start with one film.  In the case of our list, we start with Mortdecai.  That’s now the list.  Then we consider another film, say, John Wick.  Is John Wick a better film than Mordecai?  It is.  It is therefore placed above Mortdecai on the list.  Every time we bring up a film in the podcast, or whenever we feel like it, we will continue to organically grow the list until it is complete or the universe ends in heat death.  Or possibly we get bored and abandon the project.  Who can predict the future in the vicissitudes of possibility?

Not I.

Regardless, we need to offer kind thanks to Cris Sims and Matt Wilson of War Rocket Ajax who began a similar (and original) list with regards to comics, and from whom we stole this idea.  Thanks boys!

Finally, the list will be added to the bar at the top so you can easily reference which are, and are not, the greatest films of all time.  Joy!
